Purpose & Principles | Episode 9 - Gary Peterson - Coaching & Leadership

Gary Peterson is the EVP of Manufacturing at OC Tanner company.
He is also a Shingo Examiner and board member at the Shingo
Institute. Over the years, I've interviewed Gary several
different times for instructional videos, culture conversations
and points on manufacturing excellence and continuous
improvement. In fact, I met Gary during my first week working at
OC Tanner many years ago long before we were each in our
respective positions. It was there where I was introduced to the
Shingo Prize, continuous improvement and many other lean
leadership concepts. Later, I led the intellectual property
development at the Shingo Institute. So, Gary and I have many
great experiences together, and here is the thing: Gary is a
tremendous leader and I'm grateful to call him a friend.


Why do I share this history? Because this episode, while short
and to the point, is full of so many great learning points and
insights. I'm excited for you -- the listener -- to hear this
conversation. Let me know what you think.
